Cupcake Inspirations 144 - January 22, 2012 - Snowy Pastels

Today I'm playing along with Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #144. When I saw the inspiration photo - beautifully iced snowflake cookies - I knew I had to play along! I started by stamping my background with pink and blue pastel snowflakes from Waltzingmouse. I added some pleated blue satin trim, icy pink glittery cord and bakers twine. I topped it off with a pretty pastel and glitter snowflake.

The snowflake is a triple cut of Spellbinders Lace Doily Accents topped with a Cheery Lynn snowflake cut from white glitter paper. In the center is a snowflake gem topped with a pink round gem. I dusted the background pattern with gems and pearls for a little added sparkle.

Thanks so much for stopping by to have a look - I appreciate your nice comments and encouragement!

A Kept Life

When I left my full time career job my husband started calling me his "kept wife". The name of my blog is a play on that expression, because now I capture moments in photographs, and create in color in my "kept life". I hope you enjoy - thanks for stopping by!
